Persona Composer's Kickstarter Game Guns Undarkness Will Come To Consoles

thegamer.com:

Guns Undarkness has been funded. The Kickstarted for the new game coming from Persona and Shin Megami Tensei composer Shoji Meguro raised ¥19,247,775 (about $130,000) of its ¥4,200,000 goal (roughly $28,000), reaching stretch goals that will include better mocap and character models, a music video cinematic, and both a PC and console release. We don’t know which consoles Guns Undarkness will arrive on, but it seems like a natural fit for the Nintendo Switch at the very least.

The closing hours of the Guns Undarkness Kickstarter had Meguro compose a new song for the game, which he livestreamed over the course of four hours. Unfortunately, the final hours didn’t quite raise enough money to add fishing or voice acting, but the game is already looking decent enough without either.

On the opposing side is The Thousand Plateaus, a "far east military faction" that seeks to return humanity to a pre-industrial state. The group was responsible for
